re: Anybody that thinks coaches won’t come here because of unrealistic expectations

To be fair, around 69 of those losses came in the 10 years.

and what type of coaches could we hire in that time frame? Is there a reason they were so terrible?

Compared to around 80 losses in our first 20 years in the SEC. Quick math here, also, so may be slightly off.

32 years in the SEC... 10 year including 2023...55 losses...

22 years previous to 2014... 95 losses...2 ties

Problem with this correlation is that the SEC became much more difficult in the past few years as well. HDN would not have as good as a record with the current SEC strength imho. When TAMU was added, It most certainly didn't help us either.

So now wins...21 in the last 10 years including 2023
and this includes the absolutely worst coach in football history. 16 losses by himself.

In the 22 seasons prior...79 wins.


In neither tabulation were we world beaters in the SEC my friend. But I am concerned with the trend of coaches we were accepting of to hire.
